WWE 2K16 roster update: The New Day, Ricky Steamboat, and 6 more make the cut
Vaudevillains
Its been a month that Aiden English and Simon Gotch would likely describe as splendiferous. The theatrical twosome snared gold for the first time the night before Summerslam, defeating Blake & Murphy for the NXT tag titles, and now their first appearances in a WWE video game have been confirmed too. Take a bow, boys.
Zack Ryder
Woo, woo, woo hes back. Fans were, quite rightly, incensed last year when the Hype Bro was left off the roster no doubt because WWE has never valued him as highly as his 1.7 million Twitter followers. Theres no such mistake this time around, and youd fancy his new partner Mojo Rawley to also make the cut in due course.
The Rock
Well, duh. Like the great one was going to miss out on a WWE game for the first time in forever. Rockys inclusion rounds out the on-disc number of names in the line-up to 118 with DLC grapplers still to be announced. That makes the full, current list (*deep breath*): Adam Rose, Aiden English, Alicia Fox, Andre The Giant, Bad News Barrett, Bam Bam Bigelow, Baron Corbin, Batista, Big E, Big Show/Paul Wight, Billy Gunn, Bo Dallas, Booker T, Bray Wyatt, Bret Hart, Brian Pillman, Brie Bella, British Bulldog, Brock Lesnar, Cameron, Cesaro, Chris Jericho, Christian, Col Mustafa, Colin Cassady, Curtis Axel, D-Lo Brown, Daniel Bryan, Dean Ambrose, Darren Young, Damien Sandow, Diamond Dallas Page, Dolph Ziggler, Edge, Emma, Enzo Amore, Erick Rowan, Eva Marie, Fandango, Farrooq, Finn Balor, Fit Finlay, General Adnan, Goldust, Haku, Heath Slater, Hideo Itami, Honky Tonk Man, JBL, Jack Swagger, Jake Roberts, Jey Uso, Jim Neidhart, John Cena, Jimmy Uso, Kalisto, Kama Mustafa, Kane, Ken Shamrock, Kevin Nash, Kevin Owens, Kofi Kingston, Konnor, Layla, Leg Luger, Lord Steven Regal, Luke Harper, Mankind/Dude Love/Cactus Jack, Mark Henry, Mikey Whipwreck, The Miz, Naomi, Natalya, Neville, Nikki Bella, Paige, R-Truth, Randy Orton, Randy Savage, Ric Flair, Rick Rude, Ricky Steamboat, Rikishi, The Rock, Roman Reigns, Rusev, Ryback, Sami Zayn, Santino Marella, Savio Vega, Seth Rollins, Sgt Slaughter, Shane McMahon, Shawn Michaels, Sheamus, Simon Gotch, Sin Cara, Stardust, Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley, Sting, Stone Cold/Stunning Steve Austin, Summer Rae, Tamina, The Terminator, Titus ONeil, Triple H, Tyler Breeze, Tyson Kidd, Ultimate Warrior, The Undertaker, Vader, Viktor, Vince McMahon, X-Pac, Xavier Woods, Zack Ryder.

I'm GamesRadar's sports editor, and obsessed with NFL, WWE, MLB, AEW, and occasionally things that don't have a three-letter acronym – such as Chvrches, Bill Bryson, and Streets Of Rage 4. (All the Streets Of Rage games, actually.) Even after three decades I still have a soft spot for Euro Boss on the Amstrad CPC 464+.
